Robert Burns: The People's Poet
Not satisfied with the the excellent History of Scotland in HD? Well, there's a 90 minute special on Robert Burns (250th anniversary of his birth, don't you know) on BBC HD Sunday afternoon at 4.30.

With the state of Virgin's HD content like it is, I would spend an additional tenner a month for the movies / sports. If they don't get those channels in HD by May 09 I'm gone.
Ah, but Microsoft isn't crap - it has a near monopoly in its core markets and can charge what it likes for its products. If anything, Sky is the Microsoft of TV providers - overpriced, arrogant, stealing innovation (Tivo, anyone?). Virgin is more your Next Computer - an eighties operating system from Steve Jobs that had great technical potential but didn't catch on as it lacked the technological innovation that everyone wanted - colour :o)
